L.A. Mayor Candidates

So Richard Riordan is critical of two other mayoral candidates for accepting public campaign funds, is he (March 6)? I guess he would be more comfortable if wealthy people could just continue to attempt to buy elections as they have so often in the past.

It is time that we Americans focus on the whole issue of campaign funding, and realize that the ability of the wealthy to gain greater access to the public merely serves to corrupt the democratic process.
